Came from a collector, there is no wear and tear, barrel looks brand new.
the action still has the factory grease on it.
So they told me it hasn't been fired yet, and i see no indication otherwise.

it was priced at a very ,VERY good price.. if i were to import a new one myself
i would easily see another grand added to the price, if not more.
And it comes with a scope mount with rings.. I think it's the SA version which i know ain't the best one, but it's 150 bucks worth and i can always change it later...

Needless to say, i've put my money down.

Congrats and good luck with it. I'm sure she's gonna be a good shooter for you. Still gotta get mine out to the range, waiting on some ball ammo.

Thx, all i gotta do now, is wait for the permit.
Last time it took about 3 months

This time, it should go a bit quicker because my other permit was not to long ago. and i've already ordered it a month ago, so with some luck, finges crossed, i might get it soonish..

It was a mighty purdy rifle.. not light though, must ave been hard work to hump that around, + ammo and backpack in a jungle...

I love my M1A, but mine is a SOCOM

definitely a worthwhile addition to my armory. It was given to me about 6 years ago by my father, and has gone through many configurations

That a class 3??? Doesn't look like a civilian model with the selector block on it. I have a MG license, but not the money to buy one!

Not quite, just a dummy selector to fill the void on my surplus M14 stock :-D

W00t, just got informed that my permit is ready and at the pohliice station.
All i gotta do is pick up the permit (not as easy as it sounds, the cops responsible for the gun permits are twitchy and difficult to reach by phone)...

then pick her up, fondle and lube her up, find some Nato surplus i can shoot

And then it's
P
A
R
T
whYnanner?

Congratulations and good luck with her!

thanks, gonna go pick it up this evening after work
and also have sourced a shop with surplus Nato 7.62 MEN94G001 battle packs..

It's turning out to be a great week !
